MFA in Cinematography - Kickstarter

I made a Kickstarter for my thesis because I honestly have no idea how I’m going to afford to finish. My thesis involves shooting 5 films in various mediums, some of which I’ve talked about on this blog. Each film I’ve shot so far has been averaging anywhere between $7,000-$12,000. I’ve been managing this so far by not sleeping (at all), doing an ungodly amount of freelancing, and support from my parents. I’m working on my last two films, and they are the two most expensive ones in the series (one is on 35mm).

So here’s the dealio, if you can afford to donate, I would be eternally grateful. Any amount helps, even if it’s just $1. The more you donate, the more perks (original pieces of the workprint, progress videos, a visit from me, etc.) you receive. I have until May 22, 2010 to raise $5,000. If I don’t reach that goal by then, I don’t get anything.

Thanks a lot! Donate (if you can), or spread the word, so maybe some generous passers by can donate to a creative cause.

Shameless self-promotion. (Sorry) Please spread the word and share or help (if you can). Just think, if all (albeit highly unlikely) of my followers donated $1, I’d have already raised $2,232. <3 Smooches in advance.

Thanks Erika for being the hands in this video. Hee hee.

I believe in you! Others will too.

i’m plugging away!

dr. just called me back and said that i have a super kadooper underactive thyroid. this my friends could be what is causing at least two of my symptoms. i’m going to the pharmacy and picking up thyroid meds this afternoon. the doc said these meds will make me energetic (aka back to normal) and probably lose weight (effing thyroid probably had something to do with me gaining 40 pounds in three years).

i’m getting there.

battle!

Bills Amazing Music Week

Day 6 (Monday)

“ASPARAGUS TIPS”

Tallulah set the brief for this one. A song about Asparagus in the style of The Fall. For this one I went back into the analogue world…. the sounds of the seventies, unemployment, the birth of Thatcherism and compost heaps.

One more day left. One final request for inspiration please.

Bills Amazing Music Week has been just that. Amazing! this time he wrote a song about asparagus tips.

just rendered a video on mark’s machine with no problem. it’s definitely my shit machine. i really want to make videos again. i’m very angry right now.

he’s going to need more than one napkin to dry that long ass face.

maybe i’ll “accidentally” break this computer and have to get a new one… hmm..let me back up all my stuff first. ;-)

new art at dollop. haven’t had a chance to really look close up yet, but i like what i see so far.

lots of white caps on the lake today.

i can’t make videos anymore until i get a new computer. this effing blows. this piece of junk computer has held me back for quite some time. maybe i should just break down and get one. i want a mac. i want a laptop. i want something that can handle HUGE video files, and i want something that i can grow in to.

any suggestions?

i didn’t dress warm or dry enough to stay out long. the trees were lonely so i went to say hello.

:)

i’m not in to the chicago st. patrick’s day parade, but it’s hilarious watching the people in my neighborhood run around in green costumes. there’s going to be a lot of puke on the sidewalks tomorrow.

Still no fake mustaches to be found …

Have you tried Ragstock or Beatnix?  They often have costume stuff. 

Also, if you want to hit up Wicker Park try The Boring Store.

The Hollywood Mirror (think that’s the name of it) On Belmont between Broadway & Clark.

warmer weather means outside recess at the school behind my building. i really missed hearing the sounds of kids playing outside. it’s hilarious watching them bolt out of the school doors screaming and running around the school yard. They mostly chase each other around the whole time. Some of the girls cluster together giving out hugs, or showing each other their clothes and talking, while the boys are busy pushing each other around, or setting up a quick game of football.

i can’t imagine recess being taken away from a school. it’s necessary to have a break to be able to run around so much that snot pours out of your nose and your cheeks feel like they’re burning off when you go back inside.

i think we all need a little more recess in our lives. RECESS!

Puppy walk to the lake!

Mark got creative and made a Sears Tower (eff willis) in our shower with non skid tape. :)

canon lovers. check this out!

I’M NOT INTERESTED!

i writhe in pain on the floor until i can’t take it anymore. this usually winds me right in to the emergency room. i’ll never just stop taking a med like that again. i’m still not giving up. i’m going to be pain free some day. even if the very last day of my life.

battle.

thumbs way high on this one. beautiful.

i heard tons of birds chirping during my morning walk with the dogs, and just now i saw a seagull fly by my window headed for the lakefront. SPRING BABY, SPRING!

Dear Meagh,

Remember this for your test tomorrow. This is a penis. Not a vagina. A penis. Not a vagina.

Good luck Meagh!!!!!!!!

pirata:

What is the pathophysiologic mech of the treatment for the side effect of the treatment for the diagnosis? You see now why this is a battle.

the cornerstone of treatment is avoidance of triggers known to cause syncope in that person. However, new development in psychological research has shown that patients show great reductions in vaginal syncope through exposure to chocolate cake with really hot therapists. Because vaginal syncopeseesis causes a decrease in blood pressure, relaxing the entire body and eating cake as a mode of avoidance is very favorable.

not so hard.

Ya like dahgs?

i love dahgs

sometimes all it takes is for you to open your mouth and spew your ideas all over that stuffy suit filled conference room. some ideas will stick, while others won’t. why not take a chance? you will never know unless you take a chance.

FUCK THIS SHIT.

I don’t care what some a bunch of powdered wigs said back in the day - take away our right to own all guns for all I care.

i have a gun and i don’t care if they take away my right. i don’t really want it, i say…take them all away. it’s never going to happen though.
